Description

This distinctive detached character home offers a unique investment opportunity in the tranquil village of Margaret Roding, nestled within the Uttlesford district of Essex. The property spans approximately one acre and is ripe for expansion, subject to planning permissions, making it ideal for those looking to create a bespoke family residence or a profitable project. Dating back to the 18th century, the farmhouse showcases original beams that speak to its rich history and charm. The layout includes a welcoming porch, hallway, dining room, a spacious lounge with a feature fireplace, and a kitchen/breakfast area adjacent to a utility room. Upstairs, you will find four generously sized double bedrooms alongside a bathroom and separate toilet. Externally, the property features a sweeping driveway leading to a double garage constructed in 1972. While the grounds are currently surrounded by picturesque farmland views, there is also potential for acquiring additional acreage if desired. Note that subsidence repairs were undertaken in 1995, providing peace of mind regarding structural integrity.
